摘要:A brake system for a light rail vehicle having both dynamic and friction brakingsystems is disclosed. The system has three individual and redundant systems which actindependently on each truck. The system uses a dynamic brake means which converts thepropulsion motors to brake motors as the prime braking means. The system includes afluid operated friction brake system with a blending means to supplement the dynamicbraking with friction braking as needed to achieve the total braking force required. Thesystem includes an air spring and variable load means to regulate the maximum amountof fluid pressure available for the friction brake means to prevent over application of thefriction brakes and skidding of the wheels. The system further includes an independenthand brake means which affects actuation of the friction brake.
